Butler & Bontan bring the vibes by going b2b
House | Monday 23rd March 2015 | Christina
Over the last 12 months Josh Butler and Bontan have become two of the most exciting new talents to emerge from the buzzing UK house music scene. Since they burst into public awareness with the modern day anthem ‘Got A Feeling’ (which has become the 2nd biggest selling single of all time on Beatport and stayed at the top of Shazam’s Ibiza buzz chart all last summer), both young producers have been busy writing underground grooves and chart topping bombs in equal measure on some of the world’s most respected labels; Cajual, Suara, Toolroom, Definition and MTA to name but a few.
Their last release on MTA, ‘We Found A Place’ was their debut official joint collaboration, and found its way across BBC Radio 1 with support from Pete Tong, Annie Mac, Mista Jam, B Traits and Danny Howard. The success of this official partnership has inspired these two long-time friends to take their trademark chemistry on the road and present Be True to fans from across the UK and Ireland. Be True does what it says on the tin; keeping true to the roots and the vibe of real house music.
Together, Josh and Bontan have already played for 4 hours or longer at iconic venues like Sankeys, Button Factory and Chibuku. Here are the dates for the rest of the tour:
2nd April: CODE, Sheffield
3rd April: Arches, Glasgow
4th April: Ministry Of Sound, London
5th April: Déjà vu, Hull
